Why they banned it in Sweden!, 21 April 2000
Author: Fenrisulven (andersa@mbox305.swipnet.se) from Husqvarna, Sweden

This movie where never banned in Sweden, it was heavily cut. If you have seen the movie you may ask your self why they cut it down. The reason for that was that Luigi Scattini filmed this movie in Sweden and without permission to the people who acts in it put it out on the market. The film have never been shown on a theatre in Sweden, it was the Swedish national tv who send it in 1971 as one of other movies about other countrys opinion about Sweden. They decided to cut the movie, to save a lot of "actors" dignity. The day after they have shown the movie, you could read a lot of wild protests, from the angry viewers, in the newspapers.

My own oppinion about the movie: It is not a documentary, it is a classic mondo movie, with a lot of faked scenes...If you have the opportunity to get it on tape, watch it with a smile!!
